A month by month reflection on my journey as an apple distinguished educator...

This month I had the honour of joining my fellow ADE Trudi Fausett and attending the ADE Global World Summit in Austin Texas. These events are always such a valuable opportunity to network and learn alongside, with and through this powerful group of innovators. I have to say that this was the most impactful learning I have ever done, the flow on effect straight back to our teachers, community and learners has been amazing. With our new learning around the updates to GarageBand, Pages and Keynote our learners now have the ability to become musicians, publishers and animators at a much younger age. On our first day back we had 5 year olds using Keynote shapes to capture their learning and Year 2's doing line animations to tell their stories! 
I was also given the opportunity to continue with my Early Years - iPad in the Classroom Series and made significant progress towards publication. I have set myself the goal to have it published by the end of August.Trudi and I hosted an Inspire PD session to share back to our whole staff the new learning we had taken onboard from the summit. We also encouraged all staff that haven't already to sign up to Twitter and to follow the ADE threads and conversations.

I hosted another school visit this month, a group of PRT (provisionally registered teachers, their associate teachers and senior leadership team) from Tauranga Intermediate. It is comforting knowing that our journey and success is beginning to filter to higher level education which in turn will hopefully mean our graduating tamariki will have more opportunity to work with digital technologies.

I am continuing to work on problem solving and reflecting on our new journey with Apple School Manager, managed Apple ID's and Classwork. I have made contact with NZ's Apple System manager (Dan Partridge) to have a sounding board for the issues we face. Implementing new products is exciting yet frustrating at the same time. It is the potential of these innovative products that pushes us to be successful with their implementation. I will continue to connect with American educators via twitter who are currently experimenting with these products to learn from their journey.
